Back in 2003, the Postal Service, the electro-pop group comprised of Ben Gibbard and Jimmy Tamborello (with occasional guest vocals from Jenny Lewis), lead the world in one big collective sigh with their debut and massive hit single “Such Great Heights.” And then, right after everyone became obsessed, they disbanded. When stars shine too bright, they burn out—and with both artists focusing on their main musical projects (Death Cab for Cutie and Dntel, respectively), that's pretty much what happened. But now, ten years later, the Postal Service finally releases some new material and hits the road with a string of shows and a crux at—where else?—Coachella. But like many of the festival's bands performing this week, Postal Service gives fans a chance to see them without all the hassle.
